It's been the longest day as I walk into the house and drop my oversized purse on the floor next to the door. I don't even bother hanging up the keys, they're already in my jacket pocket and it has found its place next to my purse. I look around though and see that the day is about to take a turn for the better.
There in the middle of the living room, on the carpet, I see a picnic blanket laid out with strawberries on a plate and champagne chilling in front of the fireplace. "Crazy boy", I think to myself, turning the fire place on in the middle of August. But then I notice that the AC is turned up too, and suddenly shivers run down my spine. I hear the door lock behind me, but don't feel the need to turn around as you move up behind me. I can tell you're smiling, and you know you just made me smile, too. I feel your arms wrap around my waist from behind as your face nestles into the crease of my neck, smelling the fading perfume on my skin.
You breathe in deep and I get goose bumps as your breath meets my skin and my ear. I close my eyes and let out a happy sigh, placing my hands on my waist where they meet your fingers. You now turn me around slowly, stare into my eyes and whisper: "Welcome home, beautiful." I stretch my body and perch myself up on my tip toes, pressing my lips against yours now as my arms wrap around your neck.
"Did you do all this for me, baby?" I smile at you, and you just nod an answer. "I called your office earlier and they said you are way too busy... I wanted to make sure that tonight, you are not too busy for me."
With one fell swoop I find myself scooped up in your strong arms as you carry me to the blanket. You don't put me down, but instead kneel while I am still in your arms and sit on the blanket, with me in your lap now. As you settle down on the blanket, you turn me now so that I'm sitting on your lap, facing you, my legs on either side of you. I smile like a little girl and wrap my arms around your neck once more.
You let me hug you like that for what seems like an eternity as your hand wraps around my waist and the other rubs my back slowly.
After a long luxurious hug, you gently push me from your body to look at my face. A smile seems to be frozen there and that in turn makes you smile at me, too. Your hands find their way to my face now and you take it and slowly pull me closer to you, letting your lips just rest upon mine at first. Gently, as if by an angel's touch, my lips are parted by your tongue and you enclose us into a passionate kiss that I've been hoping for since that morning.
Finally we both gasp for air, exhausted and yet reenergized from our kiss. You look into my eyes and whisper hungrily, yet sweetly: "I've missed my baby today..." but I place my index finger on your lips, "This is no time to talk, angel face." The only response I needed was your nod and a grin on your face.
As I sit there on your lap, still facing you, you reach over to the champagne and pour us both a glass. You hand me mine and holding yours, you reach over to the blanket again, this time producing a strawberry between your fingers. You bring it to my lips and before letting me take a luscious bite, you teasingly drag it along my lower lip, then bring it to your mouth and bite the tip of it off. I moan as I look at your lips and you bring the fruit back to my mouth. My eyes close as my lips part gently and I feel the sweet taste of the fruit along with the taste of your lips touch my tongue.
A seductive gasp escapes your lips and following the strawberry, suddenly I feel your lips back on mine again. This time a bit stronger, the kiss is more passionate than the one before, and your hand finds its way to my back, as though to make sure that I will not escape this kiss. After a minute I pull my lips from yours, giggling and smiling, while my fingers trace an outline along your face.
A sip of champagne seems to do us both good. Within 20 seconds both glasses are empty and have found their way back to the floor, tipped over next to the bottle, with a single droplet hanging from the edge of my glass. We don't have to look at them to know that that is the position we both wish we were in as well.
As if reading my mind, you wrap your strong arms around me once more and start tilting me to my side, until I find myself laying on my back and my angel half next to me, half hovering over me. You bring another strawberry to my lips, but this time I only teasingly lick it, then take a crunchy bite, and leave the rest of the juicy fruit lingering on my lips.
You smile and lean forward, to my neck, and let your tongue glide from the crease of my neck up...up... until your reach my jaw line... further up and finally press your tender lips into mine before taking the rest of the fruit into your mouth. The soft carpet underneath me feeling like a cloud, I feel the cool air-conditioned breeze against my right and the sizzling heat of the fireplace to my left. Above me, your body mixes both as your cold skin presses against my silk blouse but the heat from your body starts a fire within me as well. My body resting below you, I finally wrap my arms around your waist and pull you on top of me completely.
You moan as you feel my warmth below you and kiss me, this time hard, with more passion than ever before. Your hungry hands explore my body, sliding down my sides and back up, past my skirt and over my blouse, to my face as your lips keep devouring mine, reluctantly stopping for split seconds to catch your breath.
You sit yourself up and un-tuck my shirt from my skirt. You lean down and kiss me softly once more, and with each kiss you pop another button on my shirt. You don't take it off completely, but instead just slide it to the sides, my sleeves still on, but the silk crumpled on either side of me now. My lace bra moves slowly with my chest as I breathe in and out. My breathing has clearly gotten faster, and you know you are the reason why.
Your hungry eyes stare at my goose bumped skin and you slowly take your finger to my neck, as if you are afraid to break me, and drag it down the center of my chest, further down, to where you reach the black lace that is resting on the skin between my now perky breasts.
